La Grama Information

From Organic Inspectors to Ginger Pioneers: La Grama's Transformative Journey In Peru's fertile lands, an extraordinary tale of innovation and impact unfolds. La Grama, born from the vision of three agronomists and organic inspectors - Diego Del Solar, Janos Kadar, and Rodrigo Bedoya - has revolutionized organic ginger farming. With limited resources but boundless determination, they embarked on a mission to empower small farmers and introduce the world to exceptional Peruvian organic ginger. A fateful encounter with an importer ignited a spark, and in 2006, their first U.S. shipment marked a remarkable beginning. Beyond business success, La Grama's dedication to organic practices has empowered farmers to protect health, environment and boost productivity. Access to global markets has transformed lives. Championing ethical labor in a nation of informal employment, La Grama ensures workers receive health insurance, pensions, paid vacations, overtime payment, maternity leave, profit-sharing, and more - reducing poverty and enhancing well-being. Embracing sustainability, supporting workers, and fostering fair trade, La Grama has uplifted communities, empowered women, and promoted education. Their story exemplifies the profound impact driven by innovation, collaboration, and an unwavering commitment to ethics. In rugged Peruvian lands, La Grama has cultivated more than ginger - they've sown seeds of positive change, proving responsible business can yield a bountiful harvest of social transformation.
